FATHER AND COACH
His father Marcelo Mendez has been head coach of the Argentine national team since 2018. Marcelo says he enjoys coaching his son but that he does not receive preferential treatment. "Having your son on the team is marvellous and is a responsibility. There are people who think he plays because he's my son, but he's on the national team because he's a good player and a key player in the French league, one of the best in the world."
